Allowing the grass to establish and develop a deep root system before it experiences temperature extremes will help it establish more quickly and with less water. In south Florida, the optimal time for establishment is during late fall, winter, or spring. It is important to provide frequent irrigation when grass is establishling. Multiple, short irrigations throughout the course of the day for 7 to 10 days following planting will help the grass establish. After the roots have pegged down, cut back frequency to once a day and increase the time to 1/4 to ½ inch for another 7 days. After this, reduce frequency to 2 to 3 times weekly, again applying ¼ to ½ inch of water. Three to 4 weeks after sodding, the grass should be fully established and irrigation can begin on an “as-needed” basis.   To find out more information on our sod service, please call us Thank you for visiting Spring Hill Lawn and Landscape.   352/  556-8919  Joe We take care of what you care about!  Better Prices On Sod This Year!  http://www.springhilllawnservice.com Spring Hill, Hernando County,  Florida
